The Cubs are better at baseball than the Blackhawks are at hockey. Just how crapshooty the hockey playoffs might be and how that impacts championship likelihood, I'm not sure.

 

And baseball playoffs aren't crapshooty?

 

Where did I say they weren't?

 

Well then why would you use hockey playoffs being crapshooty as an argument? It was weird. Baseball is definitely far more crapshooty than hockey, imo, because you aren't affected by pitching rotations.

 

The Cubs might well be better. That's just not a good reason for arguing so.

You misinterpreted what I said.

 

I said I wasn't sure how crapshooty the NHL playoffs were and how that impacted the championship likelihood despite them not being as quite good as the Cubs are at their sport. I didn't use it as an argument.

 

(Aside, pitching rotations are not really the reason the playoffs are crapshooty.)

Hell, I don't follow hockey at all. All I know is that some 8 seeds seem to knock out some 1 seeds once in a while, but that's completely anecdotal and I have no clue how often that happens.

 

When I said I wasn't sure, I meant exactly what I said.

Yeah I would go Hawks over Cubs just simply because of time, the Hawks are in the playoffs currently and can win their championship in two months, Cubs can't till October.

If any team can win the World Series before October, its this Cubs team. Don't doubt them.

Was this Benny the dude that's been arrested a couple times?

 

I think he was only arrested once, for punching a cop at the Taste of Chicago in costume. And yes this is the same guy. The mascot who was caught either buying or selling weed was the since retired Da Bull
